? re hacked Grandfather Clock for Uni
Simsane:
Thanks, everybody. No, she does not intend to install BV for a while -- I plan on doing some more research on this website before she does, if you know what I mean. I don't even own BV, so I haven't read some of the posts that will help her to prevent SecuRom. Although I do understand that she already has SecuRom due to having H&M installed, from what little I have read, the problem mainly starts when you install and load BV.
But it does sound the like collegeclock file that JM has used in his Directors' Cut since OFB and is still using while having Free Time, is the correct one. That is probably why the two phone hacks I had her install made the game crash -- they were supposed to work with the Nightlife game. Either that, or it's because I had her pull her downloads folder out and make a new one with only the two phone hacks in it. I don't know for sure because she was so upset about the fact that it crashed that she pulled them out, put her old downloads folder back and didn't want to try them again. :-\ I'll grab both, but I'll have her try the newer file first.
Oh, and I almost forgot to mention -- yes, Lord Darcy, she has to put her H&M disk in to play.

I had this same problem, but it's easy to fix. Just have her follow the instructions in the SecuROM thread at the top and download a no CD crack. It's a lot easier to remove it from the H&M version than the BV version because SecuROM isn't active with H&M.

She is using H&M disc to run the game, so Securom must be active for her, unlike most of players who used Pets or Seasons disc until BV came out. Although it is possible that the version shipped with H&M is tad more benign than the one shipped with BV.

Ah, yes, I hadn't thought of that. I was mainly speaking from my own experience. I waited to install BV, so I only had to get rid of the inactive SecuROM from H&M.

Actually, Lord Darcy, I'm sure you are correct. But if that's the case, then in a way it's also good news. She has not had any problems with her pc despite the fact that she has been using the H&M disc to play. Perhaps that implies that she will be one of the lucky one's who doesn't get any damage from it.
She does not keep any personal files, nor does she do any internet banking or bill paying on her computer (yes, she is a little bit old-fashioned in that sense -- but that may be a good thing since she has SecuRom!) so as long as it has not caused any damage, can I assume that installing BV probably won't either?
